If anyone has any experience with tailgating on a boat by Neyland in Knoxville, I'd appreciate your forwarding it below. Any recommended boat rental companies? Any general dos and donts? We'll probably have a party of about 15-20 LSU fans. Looking forward to helping to bring the Cajun Navy to Knoxville!

Bring heavy clothing that is waterproof. Knoxville in late November is often cold and wet.

I don't remember the particulars, but there were some commercial services last time we played there. I will suspect that they start popping up on this board as game day draws closer.

Agreed.


We chartered a boat when we played UW in 2009. All the charter boats were booked by LSU fans.

I would assume that there is sort of the same thing in Knoxville. It and UW are the only campuses you can arrive to by boat, if I'm not mistaken. Back to the point, if you find one, split the cost between everyone in your group.

We took beads and threw them to other boats as we passed them.


It's a lot of fun.

Yes, be drunk as frick on a boat that you're not familiar with, then proceed to motor up/down the Tennessee River until you collide with another boat.

Typical Louisiana mentality. Get drunk (Let the good times Roll) and operate an aquatic motorized vessel. No problem.

This totally asinine thought doesn't surprise me though. (Coming from the President of the Snowfake Pump Lump Club)

Or charter a boat where a driver is supplied and all you have to do is enjoy the ride.


Geez.

Nor does your usual holier-than-thou responses in many threads. What a wet dish rag you are. Ever think that maybe some of these comments shouldn't be taken literally?
Lighten up, Francis.

Well, he does have a point about water safety and questionable choices made by Louisiana residents regarding alcoholic consumption and the operation of heavy machinery.

Rode a paddlewheel up to the stadium in 2011. It was pay one price - burgers and beer. If memory is correct, a little pricey ($75 +/- each) but was glad we did it. Parked near Calhoun's on river and had a short walk to stadium. Only complaint was we docked about an hour before kickoff.

I think the guy who owns Heroman's Florist in BR put the trip together. 2011 was the second group he had put together for LSU at TN. Probably worth a phone call if interested. LINK

Have an upvote sir. These dumbasses are ridiculous thinking they can be drunk as frick and endanger lives boating. This is why I only do cocaine when boating.
